Palin Gives Opinion on Marijuana

[Rupert Pupkin]

It's funny to listen to Sarah Palin talking about marijuana. A lot of conservatives are so squeeky-clean that they wouldn't know any of the lingo. Palin says something to the effect of, "If a guy wants to smoke a "joint", that's his business." She calls it "pot" and talks about smoking a "joint". She must have been somewhat into it at one time or she wouldn't know all the lingo. I'm not making any judgement on it. I just think it's kind of funny that she knows the lingo.

Her overall opinion is that it should not be legal, but by the same token she doesn't think that's it's a serious problem and she doesn't think that law enforcement should focus on it.

Dude California could totally get out of debt if they would just legalize it . Then again the Feds would prolly come crashing in because they werent getting their cut of the tax money.

it's funny to listen to her talk about anything....until you realize people think she's on target about anything, then it becomes sad and scary.

I agree. I think they should legalize it.

I don't think she's qualified to be in the Senate or to be President or Vice President or anything like that. But by the same token, I don't think she's a total idiot. She wouldn't have gotten where she is if she was as stupid as you make her out to be.

Do you think she's stupid in comparison to most Senators or do you think she's stupid compared to most housewives? If you think she's stupid compared to the average housewife, I think you are totally wrong.

just because she's famous and is given ample opportunity to run her mouth doesn't mean she's smart. she went from mayor of some little town to be gov of alaska-how? i have no idea. maybe the opponent for governor was a loser? then, mccains folks seize upon her for vp because she's a woman, and had no baggage compared to a lot of other possibles for that spot. i don't find anything to be impressed about- i do think she's an idiot actually. compare her to whomever you wish...at least most people don't go around opening their mouth and removing any doubt of how stupid they are. i wonder if the average person can name their favorite founding father....

Since when is 'smart' a qualification for US senator?
Deceptive, corrupt, greedy, power hungry, dishonest, arrogant...seem more appropriate for our current crop

When you listen to some of those Senate sub-commitee hearings on C-Span and get to listen to most of these Senators, I think most of them are pretty bright. I'm not saying they all are. But I think most of them are pretty smart. You have a lot of doctors, lawyers, successful business people, etc.

I think many of the adjectives you used would also be correct.

She's no Barney Frank.

I'm no fan of Barney Frank and I don't agree with most of his politics. But all kidding aside, I do think he's a bright guy.

When they had the baseball players in front of the sub-committe most of these dopes couldnt even pronounce their names correctly. You know because Sosa is such a tricky name.

The guy who acted like the biggest idiot was actually a republican. I believe it was Dan Burton who vigorously defended Roger Clemens.

Barney Frank's one saving grace is that he is in favor of legalizing internet gambling.
